Police officer slits dogs throat while his partner holds it down

Don't they say that one of the more reliable predictors of violent behavior towards other human beings is a history of animal abuse? I'm sure this
isn't the first time he's done something like this. It isn't something that just "happens".

You'd think they would screen these people out during the application and interview process. It's almost seems like they're seeking these monsters
out on purpose for some reason...

Was the dog wearing an orange jumpsuit? That would be fitting. I'm far more apprehensive about our own police than I am Al-Qaeda or ISIS or Ebola or
even the Russians. While everyone's attention is diverted towards terrorists on the other side of the planet, they've forgotten about the terrorists
here at home and let them run amok.

Police here (the U.S.) carry pocket knives. Just like a ton of other people. Firefighters, doctors, ambulance drivers, Domo1s, random guys on the
street.

I wouldn't trust a cop that didn't carry a knife. Now I also think think this is a disgusting story and that knives aren't meant to be weapons
unless it's a last resort, but seriously. All cops should carry knives. EVERYONE should carry a knife.

There will be no more calls for ANYONE to be put down, beat down, or have any other violent action taken against them. Going forward from this
point, the next person that makes a remark to that effect WILL have their posting privileges removed for an undetermined period of time.

Guys, the reality is this. Do not under any circumstances involve yourself with the "police" if you can help or control it in any way. They are not
there to protect nor serve you. I understand that there are some "good cops" out there but I'm not a gambling man and I don't think anyone should
treat their lives like a game of 5 card stud.

If you can avoid interaction, please do. I can't tell any of you what to do in any situation, I can only speak for myself. For me personally, If I
witnessed another human being slitting my dogs throat while somebody held her down, somebody is going to die, could be me, could be the person doing
it, who knows but I swear to God on my childrens lives, I wouldn't stand there and watch.

Everyone has a line, everyone needs a line and everyone needs to understand the consequences on both sides for toe stepping. The nation is at a flash
point and we are one incident away from large scale civil disobedience and they know it. It's the ONLY reason they backed off at the Bundy ranch and
they are going to try to make up for it by making examples of individuals who don't have as much support.

Violence is a last resort....... Always. But if somebody is harming a member of your family, do what you think is right.

He then approached Nala, who was being held down by another officer, Thomas Schmidt, and pressed the knife up to the dog’s throat. He then
forced the blade into Nala’s neck and began slitting her throat open as she was held down by Officer Schmidt. One can only imagine the pain and
fear Nala went through as Officer Bolger slaughtered her.

That's it never trust these pricks again. Your safer getting a gun and defending yourself from intruders then you are calling the police.

I want to believe that we are better then this but there's to many examples of humanity causing destruction. Gross..

Here's what I want to know: Why won't PETA get involved in these cases?

It is a bit crazy that killing a dog will get felony charges while killing human beings doesn't even get a slap on the worst in most cases. I'm not
defending the cop or his actions. I just think it's wild that pets are more sacred in our society than human beings.

I hear that, and agree.

But consider this; Most psychopaths start out mutilating and murdering small animals...rabbits, cats...dogs etc.

In a way, this behaviour of murdering family pets, mostly dogs, perpetrated by an alarmingly increasing number of Police in the US of late, could be
recognised as a precursor behaviour...unless these nuts who hide in uniform, are identified and removed from positions of authority quick smart, next
on the murder list is going to be Humans.

So really, as terrible as it is for these psychos to slaughter animals like it's going out of fashion, i would argue it is the lesser of two evils for
an innocent pet to be murdered than it is for an innocent Human being.

Thinking out loud; Remember lately it has been shown that Police search and steal, and store personal images, including those of a sexual nature,
stored on private mobile phones taken from people they have arrested, as a kind of 'police game'..perhaps this increase in dog slaughtering is also a
game in a similar vein?

Perhaps there is a betting pool among the more deranged Policemen and Women, with the 'pot' going to the cop with the highest dog kills?

Stories like this hurt my soul, it makes me feel not only physically sick, but it also puts a damper on my day. I'm off to go and take my dog for a
walk and appreciate my 4 legged friend a whole lot more today. I'd take a bullet for my dog, I feel so sorry for this womens loss, it must hurt so
much.

If and it is a big if ,the cop involved was scared of rabies do they not carry guns . Apart from that my only comment is . Why just..............WHY

Why? Only one reason fits - and that's he's a dangerous sadistic bastard of the most perverse kind.

Why didn't the other officer stop him? In my eyes he's as bad, if not worse, for aiding and abetting this crime instead of stopping it.

This isn't something a normal person does. Twenty years this criminal in a police uniform has been on the loose. It makes me wonder what else this
animal torturer has done and got away with in his pretend career of upholding the law.

Everywhere I turn there is nothing but hatred, killing, corruption, war, poverty, the vileness is rife. I can't stand much more of it. I don't want
to live amongst it.
